On November 29th 1963, the Beatles were in Huddersfield as part of their 'Autumn Tour' of Britain with a performance at the
ABC Cinema in Huddersfield. The group was interviewed backstage by Gordon Kaye.

Things were changing quickly for the Beatles. It was in August of 1963 that they had given their final performance at the Cavern Club,
the local Liverpool band hall they had played so regularly before their fame. October would bring their most important
engagement to date -- a televised performance on Vic Parnell's Saturday Night At The London Palladium, Britain's equivalent to the
Ed Sullivan show at the time. Topping themselves again just one month later, the Beatles gave
their Royal Command Performance before the Queen Mother in November.

This interview finds the Beatles at a critical point in their career.
Joking and casual as ever, the Fab Four had conquered Britain. Still, at a time when no British Rock groups had found global fame,
any reasonable person in
November 1963 would have thought the next steps in their career to be impossible -- to successfully conquer America in less than three months time, erupting
in full-tilt worldwide Beatlemania.

Q: "What do you think of (the fans) coming in and then screaming..?"

GEORGE: "Well, they've payed the money so they can scream, can't they. I mean, if they haven't payed and they were screaming, it'd
be a liberty, wouldn't it!"
